^ Unless they didn't know that's what they were eating. Which is entirely possible you know.
The people in Soylent Green didn't know they were eating people either...
Just sayin'...

Although, I wouldn't put it pass some people to resort to cannibalism if the situation got so bad that it was either eat people or die.
"Humans would naturally grasp even the thinnest spider thread if it was a chance to climb out of hell."
[I bet no one can guess what I got that line from.]

Soylent Green was a movie. I prefer to base my worldview off of reality.

Yes, but was based off the population increase back when it was made.
Besides... movies can be right sometimes.
Like RoboCop totally was right about CDs and DVDs and right about Detroit.

Are you trying to imply I don't look at reality? I do - but it's more fun to use movies as examples.

But fortunately, the vast majority of the time they are wrong, or else a zombie virus could come from Mad Cow Disease (Zombie Land) (Which itself is not even a virus, it is a prion) or a cure for cancer based on the smallpox virus. (I Am Legend)


So there are examples of utilitarian societies that liquefy their dead old people and feed the said liquid to others in the society is based in reality?

I'm not saying that your don't look at reality in any case, I'm saying you aren't looking at reality in this case.

Oh my lord that is disgusting.. but then again people also eat placenta which is just as disgusting.

♥. Just another day like any other,
Nothing in the sky said run for cover,
There was no parade,
No lights flashing,
No songs to sing along the way. ♥

Actually many mammals besides humans eat the placenta. But I agree, it is pretty icky.

Well It's good that all the countries of the world have all completely different cultures and things. sometimes It certainly makes the world a much more interesting place Because now a days every one wants to stay healthy.

First and foremost, if a group of Americans would be found eating whatever, it would be completely unfair to state that "The Americans eat...", wouldn't it? Same goes for Chinese. There are pretty many of them, you know.

Second, I couldn't find a single serious source backing up this claim. And I'm pretty sure they would, had there been a milligram of truth to it.

And the last sentence in the linked-to page goes:
Which clearly says "this was a pile of rubbish written to make you hate someone"

The world's a scary place...

It's a lie,

2 angels, taken away to soon
Will be in my heart forever ? R.I.P.
